Because it would be so simple for Google to create a "Normal email view" for people like me.
So, Google should make it customizable.. ?
I love conversations in Gmail, but I think the article makes a good point. Users coming from other email clients don't want to think about the difference between conversations and normal emails. There should be simple option to let them use the old style.
Suppose Gmail was actually made by Apple, and that it was Apple that had concluded that the "Conversations" interface worked best for e-mail. Do you think Apple would have added a "Normal e-mail view" for people who didn't like it? I don't.
apple's mail.app has a threaded view which is basically what gmail's conversations are, and it can certainly be turned off.
No, it is not the same as gmail's conversations. The biggest difference is that gmail shows your replies in the same view.
ok, but the point is that apple still lets you decide which view you want.
